In this paper, we investigate how constraints on the randomization in the encoding process affect the secrecy rates achievable over wiretap channels. In particular, we characterize the secrecy capacity with a rate-limited local source of…

A generalized multiple access channel (GMAC) with one confidential message set is studied, where two users (users 1 and 2) attempt to transmit common information to a destination, and user 1 also has confidential information intended for…

One key metric for physical layer security is the secrecy capacity. This is the maximum rate that a system can transmit with perfect secrecy. For a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system (a newer technology for 5G, 6G and beyond) the…

Reliable communication imposes an upper limit on the achievable rate, namely the Shannon capacity. Wyner's wiretap coding, which ensures a security constraint also, in addition to reliability, results in decrease of the achievable rate. To…

Suppose Alice wishes to send messages to Bob through a communication channel C_1, but her transmissions also reach an eavesdropper Eve through another channel C_2. The goal is to design a coding scheme that makes it possible for Alice to…

We study the Gaussian multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wiretap channel, which consists of a transmitter, a legitimate user, and an eavesdropper. In this channel, the transmitter sends a common message to both the legitimate user and…

We analyze physical-layer security based on the premise that the coding mechanism for secrecy over noisy channels is tied to the notion of channel resolvability. Instead of considering capacity-based constructions, which associate to each…

This paper investigates the capacity region of a discrete memoryless (DM) multiple access wiretap (MAC-WT) channel where, besides confidential messages, the users have also open messages to transmit. All these messages are intended for the…

In an arbitrarily varying channel (AVC), the channel has a state which is under the control of an adversarial jammer and the corresponding capacities are often functions of the "power" constraints on the transmitter and jammer. In this…
